Sal aka Dalinquent

Aches steadily rose, Had him fearful to the depths of his soul
Unhearing sounds of peers around him and the head of the role
Who called out; Walked aisles, As he read from a scroll
Clock's ticking, He watched; Listened, it was dreadfully slow

Painfully even... He wants is to do away with this demon
It begs him to sit on the throne with hellish wailing and screaming
...At a moments notice sweat is on his face and it's beading
And everyone can tell he's stressed though he don't say it or speak it

Or mumble at all... Pressure makes him fumble the ball
It's too late, He chose to wait to make his run like a draw
And now he can barely run if at all, The stakes are high as hell
He aims to settle down inside but he jus tries and fails

With feeble attempts, Like an eagle's ascent
He rose, running to exit, Rushing; Pleading for strength
His teachers' resent, Apparent, He don't even repent
The crowd exclaims; He's plowed with shame of his "fecal event" ..embarrassment

Sky Scrapur

Sexual Experience

It felt like a perfect time, meeting by the river banks,
swear it was an urgent crime ,kissing with my sister's friend,
the one with a dirty mind, stealing with em eager hands,
the one who stole my sacred heart, living by this iller trend,

she was hot as fuck, i could feel my hardness boasting,
hearts throbbing, the sensual moment ghosting,
as lips danced contemporary, and throats vocalising,
lovers stripping in shallow waters, silly skins socialing,

she slid her fingers up my shirt, i caught a fever,
adrenalin rush niggas, i was ready enough ta fill her,
trying magic on her nipples, she cried for a finger,
rubbing down her cookie, she sighed "O ma healer",

My dad could hear my groans during the night,
mom had to come check ma room, everything alright?,
my dick in salutation, seein the stunt she had to scream,
so i woke up panting, ow fuck! It was Just a wet dream.

Sal...

Lol, that was quite cleverly done actually...I like that you kept the reveal right to the end because the rest was about his fear of embarrassment, had me thinking it was about fear. Really enjoyed it actually, you were quite descriptive but left room for the imagination, which is what made it work I think...going back and rereading it afterward makes it a lot clearer which is a sign of really good writing I think. Great job.

Sky - this was also good, I think you got better as you progressed....I liked the attitude bits, like the "ow fuck", added a but extra...I think where you fell down was the quality of your story wasn't as good as Sal's and I'm not even sure a wet dream is really an emotion. I also think some of your rhymes were pretty basic & even then felt like you shoehorned some in...for instance, "iller trend" felt like you didn't know what to say so you just threw anything in there.

It wasn't bad, and I stil enjoyed the verse...but there were more noticeable holes in it than Sal's and that's the reason I'm going with him:

Vote = Sal for a cleaner, better written and higher quality story telling verse.

Good battle

That opening stanza was nice, very smooth and the inners added to the complexity. You didnt reveal what exactly he was doing which made me want to keep reading. Second part didnt have the same impact to me as the first but flowwise it remained on point and I thought it helped move the story along rather then hinder it. LMFAO ok this shit was absolute comedy I was not expecting this at all. I love stories like this that dont reveal anything until almost the end. Good shit dal

Scrape
By all means you didnt have a BAD verse but this is where the experience comes in. I was impressed by what you tried to do in your first set of bars. It was an attempt at an advanced scheme which is not easy at all especially when your doing two diff sets of syllables each line. These are very strict and look the best when the syllables rhyme dead on while still making sense with the story. I would suggest checking out CHAIN sworded exo or nigma to see some really good examples of this at work. those last two lines in the third section stood out like a sore thumb to me. I didnt think those lines fit in well at all.....o my healer i cant imagine a chick saying that when im about to fuck her idk...but you brought it back in the last section and ended it with a nice twist. You have the right ideas bro you just have to work on vocab, multis, and crafting your verse to read a lot cleaner. Keep writing bro and you will get there.

This was a good battle but I give it to sal. Almost similar stories with the twists at the end but Sal just came with vet experience that gave him the win
